Thanks Erick, In more complex xml I mean, for example this xml:
<root> <book> <title>Lucene Book</title> <authors> <author>Book author 1</author> <author>Book author 2</author> </authors> <summary>Book for Lucene</summary> </book> <book> <title>Lucene Book 2</title> <authors> <author>Book 2 author 1</author> <author>Book 2 author 2</author> </authors> <summary>Book 2 for Lucene</summary> </book> </root> for each 'book' node is handled by one Document rite? and now how to handle the 'authors' node? should I put in new Document? or how? thx. :) Daniel Daniel Susanto http://susantodaniel.wordpress.com --- On Sun, 4/19/09, Erick Erickson <erickerick...@gmail.com> wrote: From: Erick Erickson <erickerick...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Indexing Complex XML To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Date: Sunday, April 19, 2009, 12:01 AM Lucene is an *engine*, not an application. *You* have to process the XML, decide what the structure of your index is and index the data. There are many XML parser options, this is just straight Java code. You'll decide what's relevant, and add the contents of the relevant elements to a Lucene document then add that to your index. Similarly for searching. So, say you have the following simple XML doc <root> <ele1>ele 1 text</ele1> <ele2>ele 2 text</ele2> </root> You'd have to parse that text, then, say, add (semi-pseudo-code) Document doc = new Document() doc.add(new Field("ele1field", "ele 1 text", StoreOPtion, IndexOption); doc.add(new Field("ele2field", "ele 2 text", StoreOption, IndexOption); writer.add(doc); Then at search time you'd form your queries on "ele1field" and ele2field".
